Don't Let Hunting be a
Boar
This week Byron "Messiah" Mudry starts the update process on our
Hunter's Pet guide. A Hunter's pet is an extension of the
Hunter themselves and really deserves a lot of attention.
This guide update will give them that attention. It covers a
complete look at each type of pet, skill and ability. In this
first update all the pets from Bats to Dragonhawks are looked at, as
well as all 4 basic abilities: Bite, Claw, Cower and Growl.
Bears are among the most popular of hunter pets due
to a few key
factors. Firstly, like bears in real life, bears will eat just about
anything. Secondly, Bears have a huge health pool and good armor. While
they suffer in damage output, their survivability makes up for it as a
tanking pet.
The only pets that are potentially more popular than a bear is a cat,
ravager or boar.
